Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
msghall Seemingly filmed on the fly, too many scenes have an incomplete feeling because more takes were needed to flesh out the performances. Damon Gupton is the worst offender, his lines are delivered as if he's reading them. This is an important point because the series relies on the interactions between characters but you never have the chance to care about them because it's so hard to relate to one-dimensional acting. It's not the actors' fault. There doesn't seem to have been enough time or budget to stretch out the the story and develop relationships between the characters. Too bad because the series is based on an intriguing plot that deserves to be handled with more aplomb. If you don't mind not caring about the characters, you may enjoy this series just to see how it all unfolds.
micke-bystrom I've seen the first two episodes and feel like giving up.I don't mind the story being somewhat slow to develop, but I feel like there are too few captivating details to bring the viewer into the story. I get no feel for the characters or their destinies. A possibly innocent man, Chris Bauer (Bankowski), is maybe about to die and despite Chris doing a good job with this character I don't really care. Despite a fine line-up with some actors from The Wire they come off as saying their lines more than acting their parts. These are fine actors, so nothing is outright bad. just unconvincing. Tony Goldwyn, who directed these first two episodes, really did not bring out the very best from the actors nor the story. Maybe it's just below "good enough", but it's simply not at good enough.Marin Ireland (as Christine), Damon Gupton (Adam), Paul Schneider (Clark) and Joe Anderson (Kucik) all fail to make me care about what they say, what they do and what they face. I'm bored by a storyline that might develop into something interesting. I don't think I'll stick around to find out.It's possible that if all the actors being from The Wire (which is a 10) hadn't made me think of it or if I hadn't seen four seasons of The Killing (another 10) I could have had some more patience.
christiank7 OH dear me. The show is so totally a liberal you know what fest that one almost needs a condom to watch it, which I did for one and half episodes. Haha. The male lead lawyer then made some asinine statement like "Where did they learn their journalism, Fox News?" and that was it people. The Fox News team is by far the single best journalistic group presently gracing the airways and make CNN and a few others like the NBC propaganda machine for oboso look almost like the goo between the elephants toes. People really! Bleeding hearts madness in a chamber full of acting horrors. What gives with people who actually like this show? I want to know? From the very outset one absolutely knows the way things are going to progress. Stereotypical garbage from the bleachers made to support the liberal brainwashed masses. The legal accuracy is so off one would never approach a lawyer ever and then again maybe one should do this just to see how dumb this show is. OK Enough said about the script (sic) etc, now down to this mad woman lead, another one of the recent mad women in some form of important position doing her do without so much of a regard for the law and others that it only makes me wonder why men do not employ women for serious work more? This is a travesty and every American woman should be horrified at how women are portrayed in shows like this. Really ?? I say again REALLY??? Do not watch this garbage and make your displeasure known to the stations carrying this garbage and the sponsors. When are Americans going to wake up? I doubt ever!
lsgateley It was pretty good, although I fail to understand the "put down" of FOX News. Cheap shot! The leading characters seem to be having so much baggage that they can't look objectively at the cases that they are working on. The writer's are obviously left leaning. I think the show would be a whole lot better if they would try harder to balance the show. The "police side" should be played up more than it was.I realize that my review will probably be in the minority, but that is the way I feel. Not all people who watch this show are liberals, and I feel that both sides should be shown
